The Returning EX (Sophia and John)

Chapter 2173 Forcing Him Into Renewing the Contract

Gary hurriedly withdrew his gaze and turned to talk to Lucy.

Meanwhile, Cindy continued to observe the two, and just as she sensed that Lucy was about to look at her, she speedily withdrew her gaze and returned to her unfinished sketch.

She didn't know if the two ultimately looked in her direction; what she did know was that the two were no longer there when she was nearly done with her sketch a while later.

At that, she let out a long murky breath, unsure what exactly was Gary's purpose of visiting. He came for Mr. Kaufmann last time; if he's not here for him this time, could he have come to deal with something else?

He was a little alarmed about Lucy when she was mentioned during their call the day before. Perhaps he had come specially to deal with her.

Then again, judging from their short interaction at the doorway, Cindy thought there wasn't anything upsetting. In fact, they looked rather well acquainted.

At that, Cindy recollected Lucy's appearance. She had to be honest; Lucy was, at the very least, decent-looking. It was just that she had a bit of a problem with Lucy's personality. Nonetheless, it wouldn't be a big deal to her if Gary took a fancy to Lucy.
